Storey Wilkins - Powerful Wedding Day Storytelling

The representation of a couple’s joy on their wedding day has been marginalized in our industry by the overt use of actions and effects. Is telling a joyful, natural, elegant wedding day story a lost art? Telling a great wedding story with photographs that are joyful, professional and powerful is visual communication at its best. Documenting your clients’ thoughts and feelings as their wedding day races by is a skill. Translating it into a wonderful family history book is art.

The four main areas covered will be:

How to finesse your poses and prompts so that your clients look relaxed, interested, and happy

How to take better candid photographs, better details, and capture more moments

The six key principles of timeless album design

The importance of the “best fit” for your clients as well as you
